And John Harbaugh’s club wound up holding on for dear life in a win over the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers. Baltimore struck first late in the first quarter as Joe Flacco connected with one-time Steelers’ wideout Mike Wallace for a 95-yard touchdown. Thanks to their kicking game and special teams, the Ravens owned a 21-0 fourth-quarter lead before staving off a frantic rally by Ben Roethlisberger. The veteran quarterback threw for one score and ran for another. But the Steelers attempt at an onside kick was downright embarrassing.

Baltimore now owns a 2-0 record within the division and it looks like there will once again be a dogfight for the AFC North title.</p>. 4-4
